Understanding Prepositions of Place

Prepositions of place are words that tell us where something is. Here are some important ones:

On: means something is on top of something else. Example: The book is on the table.
In: means something is inside something else. Example: The pencil is in the box.
Under: means something is below something else. Example: The cat is under the chair.
Next to: means something is beside something else. Example: The bag is next to the desk.
Behind: means something is at the back of something else. Example: The tree is behind the house.
In front of: means something is at the front of something else. Example: The car is in front of the building.

Asking and Answering Questions

When we want to know where something is, we can ask a question like this: "Where is the [object]?"

To answer, we can say: "The [object] is [preposition] the [location]."

For example:

Question: Where is the book?
Answer: The book is on the table.
